In the grand scheme of things, life experience, etc, yeah. 16 (or even 19) is still a child. But there’s actually a huge difference in a teenager vs a single-digit child in terms of how they think and act. But I definitely shouldn’t have lent my car to my 5 year-old nephew, I see that now…
Depends on your personal definition of child. 16 is definitely a teenager. For many people, those are distinctly different stages and do not overlap. A middle segment between child and adult. Whereas a different descriptor like minor would apply to both children and teenagers.
I don’t know. 16 is plenty old to get a part time job and go on dates.

I don’t think minors should have to pay income tax. “No taxation without representation… unless you’re 16.”
